Hi, have you looked at clients/nested.c and clients/nested-client.c?

It seems to be similar to what you want, but instead from a single process,
it appears to combine two differ clients into one, by making a nested
act as a wayland server and then letting the nested-client use nested as
its server.

I believe its aim was to solve a problem for Webkit's separate process
architecture, where renderer process was separate from the webkit's main
one.
